Birthdays

Tomorrow is my Darling Husband's 49th birthday and then on Monday my Mom, Dorothy celebrates her 65th birthday. I always delight in the 2 months between November 16th and January 24th (my birthday) as I can say that I am 5 years younger than Ivan. Although in reality I am really only just 4 years younger, the math of 49-44= 5, delights me and annoys Ivan. (Hmm small things annoy small minds). As always we seem to have a celebration on Ivan's birthday for them both, but this year it is okay as Mom and Dad are having a few days away, leaving early Monday morning. So I am planning a roast lamb lunch, with some nice red and white wine and a few laughs. I like birthdays, it is special to make a day really special for someone. As we get older they often lose the magic of childhood, I think this is because we forget that it is a day to celebrate, not to mourn another year passing.Birthdays for children are magical, the morning presents, often a party to look forward to and a day when we can do no wrong. So tomorrow and Monday, two special people in my life will celebrate their birthdays and I am going to make them special days, filled with happiness and magic.

About Me

I am wife, mother and author. My marriage of 24 years is my strength and my rock. My incredible children inspire me and keep me busy - even as adults.
The other person that I am is a 'Published Author' - 2012 saw me publish my first novel "The Creators" and in 2013 I succeeded in publishing my second novel "The Destructors". 2014 will see me finish Book three in my Chronicles of the Guild Series and hopefully publish it after mid-year.
I love writing stories, poetry, inspirational quotes and blog posts. Reading is as important to me as eating, and I love photography & scrapbooking.
